F1 supports Sinner: parade of drivers at the Masters 1000 in Monaco for Jannik

All for Jannik There are still almost three months left until the 2026 Monaco GP – scheduled for June 7th – but today there was an air of Formula 1 in the Principality, despite the fact that in recent days the attention in the small city-state overlooking the Mediterranean coast is all for tennis. In fact, the Masters 1000 tournament in Monte Carlo is underway and will have its eagerly awaited final tomorrow. The two strongest players in the world will once again challenge for the title: Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner. Today the Italian defeated the German Alexander Zverev in the semi-final and the very presence on the field of our champion attracted a lot of protagonists of the Circus who decided to enjoy the ‘home’ tournament – almost all the F1 drivers live in the Principality, just like Sinner himself – transforming the stands of the Monte Carlo Country Club into a parade of F1 stars. Today they were present to see the exploits of world number 2 Gabriel Bortoleto, Ollie Bearman, Oscar Piastri and Alex Albon. At the end of the match, the four couldn’t resist the temptation to take a photo with the Italian champion. The bond with Russell and Antonelli Yesterday, however, it was George Russell’s turn who had witnessed Sinner’s victory in the quarter-finals against the Canadian FélixAuger-Aliassime even in the ‘private’ box of the champion from San Candido. The English driver is in fact a friend of Sinner, who confirmed in the press conference that he wanted to reciprocate in this way the invitations received in the past from Russell and Mercedes: “We are good friends and I was really happy to have him in my garage – Sinner had said in the press conference, speaking of Russell’s presence – when I went to a Grand Prix he invited me to his. We support each other, sincerely”. All this without forgetting the great friendship that binds Sinner to the other Mercedes standard bearer, as well as the current leader of the F1 World Championship, Andrea Kimi Antonelli. Sinner himself had wanted to celebrate the first career victory of the young driver from Bologna at the end of the Indian Wells tournament (which he also won). Demonstrating a bond – that between Sinner and F1 – that seems truly unbreakable.
